Dodge Charger: STARTING AND OPERATING / PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications
of the distance between the rear fascia/bumper and a detected obstacle when backing
up (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
ParkSense will retain the system state (enabled or disabled) from the previous
ignition cycle when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear selector is in REVERSE. If ParkSense
is enabled at this gear selector position, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. The system
will become active again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately
6 mph (9 km/h).
In certain driving situations, ACC may have detection issues. In these cases,
ACC may brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert and may need
to intervene...
The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from the
rear fascia/ bumper...
